I think the other reviewer gives right minded gun enthusiasts a bad name. This is an interesting film for what it is. I give it as much credence as I do the other propaganda films of the time. Handguns are still the firearms most used in crime but everyone is preoccupied with the flashier rifles.
Sir, I am a card carrying member of the NRA and a Jew. I also vote. Pick your battles or we will all be labelled as 'hateful gun nuts' instead of what we are, free Americans who respect the constitution.

The Jewish agenda has always been to disarm the populace in order to control the masses. Nothing will ever change until they have absolutely destroyed the world. This has been going on for thousands of years. Goddamn evil war mongering savages!!!
